Abstract Compound (I) is 2-methyl-3-(2′-methyl-2′-nitrovinyl)indole, C12H12N2O2,M r=216.24, monoclinic,P21/n,a=16.710(1),b=7.627(1),c=17.646(1) Å,β=104.8(1)°,V=2174.7(1) Å3,Z=8.D x=1.321 g cm−3, MoKα, λ=0.71073 Å,μ=0.858 cm−1,F(OOO)=912, room temperature,R=0.061 for 1956 observed reflections. Compound (II) is 3-(2′-nitrovinyl)indole, C10H8N2O2,M r=188.18, monoclinic,P21/n,a=10.178(1),b=10.608(1),c=8.411(1) Å,β=105.5(2)°,V=875.0(1) Å3,Z=4,D x=1.4284 g cm−3, CuKα, γ=1.5418 Å,μ=8.068 cm−1,F(000)=392, room temperature,R=0.040 for 1330 observed reflections. Compounds (I) and (II) have a similar geometry, the only significant difference lying in the rotation of the nitrovinyl chain. This feature could be responsible for the difference in biological activity. In both compounds, the molecules are associated, forming charge-transfer complexes.
